Hikerbush, Freebase is not a general discussion forum nor is it a place for you to promote your own website in this way. However, the information you have about textile conversion tools might be of interest to our Measurement Units commons. Would you be interested in helping us gather structured data about measurement units and conversions relevant to the textiles field?

Hey, great domain. I am using Textile Fiber as an expected type for my jeans domain ("Wearing My Religion"). So I have a "Material" type that is a Compound Value Type that has a percent field and the Textile Fiber field so you can express jean material like "100% Cotton". However, the name "Cotton" is no longer being displayed, but rather it's id "/en/cotton". And I think it's because the Textile Fiber has been changed to a Compound Value Type itself. I would like to link straight to topics "Cotton", "Polyester", etc.

May have been a reflection from the change in our client code recently, this was old type experiment from Sept 2007, I hadn't touched for a while. I made some changes so Cotton now shows as Cotton ;)
You might consider adding to your jeans type the type 'textile' as fabric and thus you can explicitly state your jeans are denim, and then have material be part of it as a way to capture the percentage cotton to other fibers/threads.
